I
am very privileged and proud to be Captain of Ballyliffin Golf in
its Golden Jubilee year.

The great Club we are today is the product of dedication,
hard work and vision of all those who served us over the years, and
the spirit and atmosphere created by the members.

As we celebrate our Golden Jubilee we must maintain
for our successors their traditions and high standards which we are
fortunate to inherit. Let us celebrate our Golden Jubilee with vigour
and style, and move forward and plan the future of this Great Club
for years ahead.

It is with tremendous optimism that I look forward to
my year as Captain and I will do all in my power to make this year
a memorable and enjoyable milestone.

May I take this opportunity to thank our staff for their
excellent work and wish all our members and visitors a happy and enjoyable
year.
